Reap What You Sow!

Well the time has finally arrived!!!! I got to pick two beautiful squash off of the vines Monday night!!! I was thrilled. I had everyone, including the dogs, all wound up over two squash. As I have mentioned before, I have seen this growing thing done by some that are very near and dear to me but I have never been good at it. Enter my euphoria over two squash! I fixed the squash for lunch today. Fried it with some onion, added a little salt and pepper. mmmmmm it was so delicious. I was worried that the skin would be hard, like the ones I have bought in the store, but they weren't!!! Melly wanted nothing to do with it, Priscilla loved it and Serenity took one bite and said it was good but didn't want anymore!!! I didn't even ask Erik, I know his feelings on veggies all to well!!!

I planted two yellow pear tomato plants and have so far gotten 5 little tomatoes from them. They are loaded with little green ones just waiting to ripen, it seems to be taking FOREVER!!!! I have shared two, yes two but that is all that were ready, of the tomatoes with our neighbors, The Clarks, in hopes of more ripening next time!!!!

About Me

Erik's wife, Melody, Priscilla, & Serenity's mom. I love to read, play games, be crafty and reality TV is my guilty pleasure! It is a train wreck I tell ya!! I love the smell of Vicks Vapor Rub and Playdough, when the container is opened for the first time. I probably use more exclamation points than I should!! See! I love to laugh and think the world needs to laugh more, not just a little haha but a good deep belly laugh!!
